The 'Curse of Gran Turismo' continues to dog the PSP conversion as news from Japan filters through...

Originally planned for release in Japan during Spring 2005, it seems that Gran Turismo 4: Mobile Edition continues to follow its home console predecessors in falling behind schedule.

Speaking to Japanese publication Famitsu, developers Polyphony Digital have confirmed that the game has been given an indefinite release date. The news is the latest in a number of blows to hit the PSP, following the decision by several movie companies to stop producing UMD Videos for the handheld, and recent suggestions that Sony's platform is on death's door.

Gran Turismo 4 on PlayStation2 was released in 2005 after slipping from an original release date in 2003, so with that in mind perhaps we shouldn't expect the Mobile Edition to hit retail until well into 2007...if at all.

We'll have more news shortly...

Bought the game today, and I dont mind a lot of content missing in the mobile version... but why on earth is it NOT possible to have small competitions?!?!? I dont see any reason to leave out events like that... I must say, I'm dissapointed and 40 euros lighter

Maybe they're reserving infrastructure mode for the sequel. It took Polyphony Digital long enough to add online multiplayer in the home console series and dito for car damage. The PSP2 will probably be released before either of those features come to the handheld versions. Still, Polyphony Digital is an awesome developer nonetheless.

Nope you've only got ad-hoc - bit of a shame and a missed opportunity, can't understand why develoeprs don't support infrastructure...

I have been waiting for 2 years... searching the web for a psp version of gran turismo. (one of my favorite games of all time.) So far all I have found are empty promises. To the game developers: Please release a playable PSP Gran Turismo. I may speak alone, but i don't really care about the quality of the graphics.. Just wish I had something to play after all this waiting.
